A good stance and posture reflect a proper state of mind.
Morihei Ueshiba
For he considered that, in many cases, but especially in war, mere appearances have had all the effect of realities; and that a person, under a firm persuasion that he can command resources, virtually has them; that very prospect inspiring him with hope and boldness in his exertions.
Livy

Sinclair Lewis
Literal Translation: A firm fortress is our God,
a good defense and weapon.
He frees us from all need,
that has struck us.Martin Luther
